Xenopus laevis tadpoles and toads were killed at several ages. The structure of the nuclei of the germinal cells has been observed by light and electron microscopes. We distinguish 11 successive stages in nucleolar structure: (1) a single, essentially granular nucleolus in the oogonium (10 /tm diameter), (2) a reticulated nucleolus in the leptotene oocyte, (3) fragmentation of this nucleolus in...

rabbitfish is economically valuable teleost species which lives in shallow coastalwaters. two species of rabbit fish have been recognized in southern sea of iran (persiangulf) as namely siganus sutor and siganus javus. in the current study, in order toinvestigate the histology of the annular ligament of the s. javus’ eye, the prepared sectionsof the eyes of twelve healthy specimens were studied...

In this paper we investigate the interaction between a granular layer and an elastic foundation using a coupled Discrete Element Method-Finite Element Method (DEM–FEM) computational model. We use this dynamics code to simulate quasi-static bending of the granular layer and we observe the changes taking place in the structure of the force chains for two cases: with and without rolling resistance...

STOCHASTIC AND DETERMINISTIC DYNAMICS INVESTIGATION OF THE MICROSTRUCTURE OF GRANULAR MATERIALS by Vishagan Ratnaswamy Granular materials are ubiquitous in one's daily life. They can be found in the cereal you eat, the sugar you put in your coffee or the sand you walk on in the beach. The study of granular materials has a rich history dating back to the 17 th century where Kepler studied the pa...

A granular front emerges whenever the free-surface flow of a concentrated suspension spontaneously alters its internal structure, exhibiting a higher concentration of particles close to its front. This is a common and yet unexplained phenomenon, which is usually believed to be the result of fluid convection in combination with particle size segregation. However, suspensions composed of uniforml...

the adsorption properties and mechanics of selected endocrine disrupting compounds; 17 β-estradiol, 17 α – ethinylestradiol and bisphenol a on locally available black tea leaves waste and granular activated carbon were investigated. the results obtained indicated that the kinetics of adsorption were ph, adsorbent dose, contact time and temperature dependent with equilibrium being reached at 20 ...

Granular computing(GrC) is a recent label, roughly speaking, jointly coined by Lin and Zadeh in 1996 to denote an emgering technolgy that is based on the computing/mathematical theory of an ancient concept of granulation. In this paper, we present the ”final” GrC model that simplify the earlier version.

most popular sources for electromagnetic waves. However, there are many concerns regarding their biological effects on the body, especially the central nervous system. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of cell phone radiation on histology of the cerebellar granular cells in the neonatal rat. Materials and methods: We selected some Wistar rats. Then, we randomly d...
